Round Button #1 and #2

These filters work on circular selections. If you don't select anything, a centered circle the size of the width or height of the image, whichever is less, is automatically selected. The area outside the circle is masked off automatically if the filter is applied to a layer with transparent background. The outer mask can be disabled with one of the slider controls.

The idea is to make round buttons very simple to create by starting with a normal rectangular image. After the filter is applied, export the image to GIF89a format. Transparency is not supported in GIF87 or JPEG formats commonly used for Web page images.
